Questions about sheep's wool or natural loft insulation in Cramlington
Is loft work in Cramlington different from anywhere else?
The method is the same, but older terraces, cottages and newer estates each have their own quirks: lath ceilings, low pitches or trussed roofs. We plan for the loft we find.
What do I need to do before you arrive in Cramlington?
Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.
Do you charge extra to travel to Cramlington?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Cramlington. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Do moths eat sheep's wool insulation?
Insulation-grade sheep's wool is treated against insects. We use products sold for loft insulation, not raw fleece.
How deep does natural insulation need to be?
It depends on the product's thermal conductivity. Some need slightly more depth than mineral wool to reach the same U-value, which we allow for on the quote.
